than that are suddenly "rare" and "expensive", $30 or $40 for any
SCSI drive under 9GB at a lot of resellers I've visited lately.
Anyone know where those stacks went? Are small drives just impossible
to come by for less than $30 now?
I wouldn't say 'impossible' at all. I would add that the prices you're
seeing may be a regional thing.
I say this because the local (Seattle) used place, RE-PC, has boxfuls of 1-2 gig SCSI
drives for about $5 each. Granted, they're getting harder to find -- most of what I
see now are in the 1-4 gig range. However, I do see a few sub-1gig units.
If you're not talking about huge quantities, I could probably work on picking up some
for you. Let me know.
